Alright, finally got hype train on tracks~! Join the hype train, too!
(specifically, one can join hype train by posting in the topic; the program should add the poster to the train within an hour or so)

Currently it has rather uninteresting backgrounds and nearly no members sprites (aside from me, dadio and Snail_Man). If you want your sprite to be added, please do send me one through PM. The dimensions should be within 96x96. Please try to make it consistent with the other graphics style (rather few colours, clear borders). The animation speed is 60 FPS.
If you can't really draw, you might give me a sketch/description and I'll try to if I get some time (though note I'm not the best artist out there). If you can draw and want to help out with a few other members or have fun backgrounds ideas, I definitely won't mind. ^^"

Two and a half years of game development taught me the joy of making something unique and unconventional. It is not good enough to make a game fun when there are way too many other freeware games that make fun their selling point.

Gosh, HayMan, careful here! There are almost 20 days remaining. Or do you already have prepared ~50 Jam related pictures?Not that I don't mind them, I just wouldn't like you to run out of them long before the Jam starts. ^^"

New user sprites has been added since the train launching: nvrogers (by request), HayManMarc (by request) and Nitemare38 (because I felt like doing it). If you want to get a sprite for yourself, feel free to shoot me a PM with sprite/sketch/description. Remember the sprites have 96x96 dimensions and are animated with 60 FPS speed (though of course you can stretch the animation if it's too fast).

Also, I added an option to add custom wagons aside from user sprites (tested on JackOatley's wagon). Regular wagons are pretty fine, but if you want to add another touch to your interiors, you're by all means free to! The wagons have two states - exterior (when the view is not focused on the wagon and its wall is shown) and interior (when the view is focused on the wagon and it's shown who's inside). The basic wagon sprite can be found in spoiler below; feel free to play around with that! Remember though that each wagon should have same width and has same wheels attached!

It seems there are quite a few former Jam games involved; at least I can identify the character from Exkakx' brainf***ing game from pirates Jam, and a winged goddess character from RekNepZ' game from memories Jam that, in fact, was a reference to a game from earlier Jam.

Could someone gather up the titles and Jams? The top middle picture is Brain Pirates Legacy from GMC Jam #13.

Top right image is from "Toothpaste Man" which I recall was Cantavanda's entry in the 8th, 9th or 10th jam, at least the last jam he participated in before his initial ban

Actually, I wouldn't mind if puzzles in the end would end up with specific letters (e.g. "4-I" or "11-T") or other vague theme description (e.g. "the theme has 14 letters"), possibly having a few puzzles per letter to keep puzzles flowing without making theme too easy (handicap is easier in that regard, I guess).

That way puzzle-savvy people would have something to crack *and* other users would be able to happily engage in random theme guessing (the latter of which was lacking in the last pre-Jam).
